Chapter 1199: The Great Prohibition Law

“Run away!”
“No matter how skilled he is, he’s just one person—what’s there to fear?”
“Let’s all throw hidden weapons at him! If we can hold him off for a while, once the leader of the Heaven and Earth Alliance and Cao Shaoqin arrive, I doubt he can withstand them!”
Similar cries grew louder, and the players who realized what was happening quickly used their skills, firing waves of hidden weapons, flying knives, and arrows at Dong Fang Bu Bai—creating a spectacular sight.
But they clearly underestimated a master of the Heavenly Dao…
Under the rule of the Heavenly Dao, it was extremely difficult for a group of people to coordinate their attacks. Dong Fang Bu Bai’s speed was among the fastest among such masters, and most of the hidden weapons and flying knives were easily dodged on the spot.
Though a few managed to hit him, Dong Fang Bu Bai, being a master of the Heavenly Dao, had vital energy flowing throughout his body. When attacked, his vital energy quickly adjusted to ward off or deflect external threats. Even the damage from the Wu Wei realm couldn’t tear through his red robe.
Countless weapons landed on his red robe like raindrops on an umbrella, sliding off instantly.
But due to the chaos and the sand covering everything, no one noticed this.
At first, Dong Fang Bu Bai ignored them, but as more and more weapons hit him, his narrow phoenix-like eyes filled with intense anger and fury.
Whoosh!
He turned abruptly, abandoning the group in his original direction, and swiftly emerged from the barrage of weapons.
The red figure left behind was instantly pierced and torn to pieces by the countless weapons.
“Ah!”
“He’s here!”
“Run!!”
The group in the opposite direction still didn’t understand what was happening when they saw a large group of people turned to silence by the sharp blades—how could they not realize what had happened?
“Run away!”
“What cowards!”
The people in the other two directions spoke carefreeingly.
But when they saw Dong Fang Bu Bai unharmed, their mouths snapped shut, and fear flashed in their eyes.
Looking back at the path Dong Fang Bu Bai had taken…
Hundreds of meters of dunes were covered with thousands of dead bodies.
The leader of the Heaven and Earth Alliance and Cao Shaoqin seemed unwilling to help them ambush Dong Fang Bu Bai. They followed from afar, unhurried, showing no sign of coming to assist.
Seeing this, some finally realized that their earlier assumptions were nothing but delusions!

They wanted to watch the top masters of Tiandao fight each other so they could reap the benefits, but these masters of Tiandao were truly extraordinary figures. Didn’t they also hope to use these profit-driven martial artists before them to drain Dongfang Bubai’s internal energy and Qi, allowing Hu Po to further distort his mind?
Seeing this, many people immediately wanted to back out.
……
“After fighting against the leader of the Heaven and Earth Alliance, Cao Shaoqin, for so long, Dongfang Bubai still shows no signs of exhaustion…”
“Even master warriors of Tiandao can’t recklessly consume so much internal energy—for protection, swift movement, and blade techniques, the amount expended is enormous.”
Far away, over a thousand disciples of Xifeng Tower had successfully joined forces with Meiying and the others. Though their strength had increased, Meiying’s expression was not good.
Thousands of masters were like rows of rice in front of Dongfang Bubai, fueling his killing desire without causing any real damage to him.
If this continued, even if tens of thousands died, it would be difficult for them to take Hu Po from Dongfang Bubai’s grasp.
Meiying recognized the severity of the situation, but her disciples were full of confidence, their gazes fixed on the distance with fervor.
“Haha… A bunch of ragtag crowd. Die! It would be best if they all died. In the end, it’s still us from Xifeng Tower who need to step in.”
“…”
Meiying and Wu Kuo exchanged a complex look.
Ragtag crowd? Their brothers hadn’t experienced that kind of fear firsthand nor felt the intimidation of Dongfang Bubai and Hu Po up close, which is why they spoke so arrogantly…
Although those tens of thousands came from various factions and countries across the land, their strength was quite impressive. Even as a ragtag crowd, they had given their all.
If those over a thousand from Xifeng Tower were sent in, they wouldn’t fare any better against Dongfang Bubai—after all, the one wielding Hu Po wasn’t an ordinary martial master but a top-tier figure at the realm of unity between man and heaven—ordinary peak Mythical Realm masters couldn’t even escape unscathed under his blade.
But now wasn’t the time to speak discouraging words that would dampen morale. The two silently gave orders for their brothers to stay calm and observe.
……
Meiying could stay seated and choose to let the people of Xifeng Tower continue to observe, but some couldn’t stand by while Dongfang Bubai completely shattered the morale of tens of thousands of martial artists.
Yanlang and Jin Luosha had reunited!
On the horizon opposite Xifeng Tower, a hundred top fighters from the Wild Wolf Organization stood like tree stumps, clad in the yellow cloaks common among people from the Western Deserts, standing quietly on high ground, their robes fluttering in the wind.

“No wonder the masters of ancient times built the Desert Palace to seal it away. Tiger Soul… truly deserves to be called the most terrifying weapon of ancient times—even a master of the Heavenly Dao can be influenced by it invisibly! Now, Dongfang Bubai is completely consumed by murderous thoughts and unable to extricate himself. As long as there’s anyone nearby, he becomes a killing machine…”

On the high ridge, Yan Lang slightly raised his chin, narrowing his eyes to gaze at the chaotic battlefield in the distance for a moment before turning his gaze away. In his opinion, most of the people below had no chance of escaping Dongfang Bubai’s slaughter… The speed of the Heavenly Dao masters was too fast! Moreover, the sand dunes below were flat and exposed, with nowhere to hide—unless Dongfang Bubai showed mercy, but he had never been a merciful person. Under the influence of Tiger Soul, his brutality would only increase.

“A terrifying relic from ancient times… now even I start to feel a sense of awe toward it…”

Blood Prison Blade spoke up, “Although we’ve come prepared for this mission, we don’t know the full power of Tiger Soul. And it’s our first time dealing with a Heavenly Dao master—who knows if things will go smoothly?”

“A mere nine people using the Great Sealing Technique can easily subdue a master at the peak of the Mythical Realm. This time, we’re deploying nine teams, working together from nine different directions. Even a Heavenly Dao master can’t escape!” Xiao Taohong said calmly.

“Just wait and see,” Yan Lang replied in a flat tone. “If possible, it’s best to let the leader of the Heaven and Earth Alliance, Cao Shaoqin, take the lead. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to act, and we might end up helping others instead.”

“That’s true. The people from Xifeng Tower are also watching closely, probably with similar plans…”

“Hmph, it’s not surprising they have their own plans. But in this desert, Xifeng Tower has only a few elite members—how can they compete with us? It’s a shame. If it weren’t for not wanting complications, I really would go and wipe out those scum.”

Hearing Yan Lang’s murderous words, Xian Er quickly interjected, “The boss’s orders are the primary goal of this mission. We don’t need to worry about the people from Xifeng Tower for now…”

“Actually, Bai Xiaosheng should already have figured out where we are,” Blood Prison Blade said, slightly puzzled. “With all our efforts to hide, it’s possible that Xifeng Tower and Jinxiu Shanhe might still take action.”

Hearing this, Yan Lang explained, “They do their thing, and what we need to do is hide our whereabouts for now and not reveal our location too early… As long as their people can’t find us, we have the best chance of obtaining the Tiger Soul! Although Bai Xiaosheng can estimate our general location, the desert is different—there are no references here. Even if they get specific information, they’ll be lost once they enter the desert.”
“…”
The group suddenly understood.
As long as they stayed in the desert, they had nothing to worry about. Not only could Bai Xiaosheng not pinpoint their location, but those searching would also find it hard to act.
“I see. So even if Bai Xiaosheng informs Xifeng Tower, we don’t need to worry… Alright, when the time is right, we’ll first deal with the group from Meiying, then slowly take on Dongfang Bubai…” Xueyu Dao said proudly, before suddenly changing tone and gritting his teeth, “It’s a shame that Kai Xin has been missing for many days—probably on a covert mission… If we could run into him in the desert, we could use the ‘Great Banishment Technique’ to subdue him and avenge our past humiliation!”
Many behind him showed expressions of regret and sighs.
They were still dissatisfied about not being able to take over the Central Plains in one go. If not for Kai Xin, would they need to be so cautious like thieves? Would they still have to wait until the next day after the system announcement to gather forces from the Western Regions and enter the desert?
“I don’t know what the boss is worried about. It’s just that Song Que of the Heavenly Sword Clan hasn’t chosen his successors yet, so he must assume Kai Xin has another trump card.”
Some voices began to discuss among the crowd:
“In my opinion, last time it was purely because of Mengyun’s mismanagement. If they hadn’t revealed their cards too early, how could Xifeng Tower have held on this long… They should have been destroyed long ago!”
“And then there’s Jinxiu Heshan…”
“In just seven days, Kai Xin managed to assemble a gang of hundreds of thousands of troops…”
As the brothers discussed freely, the few leaders in front grew increasingly worried.
“Enough!!”
Xiao Taohong’s cold shout interrupted everyone’s chatter.
“The boss’s worries aren’t unfounded. We all saw Kai Xin fight against the Evil King of the Song Clan. He was able to hold his ground against top heroes from the righteous side for so long—his strength has undoubtedly improved!”
“That’s right!” Yan Lang also agreed.

“Long ago, it was because we underestimated Happy that we suffered consecutive defeats at his hands. In the end, he even completely ruined the situation we had painstakingly built. Whether or not we encounter Happy in the desert this time, you must not underestimate this man!” After a pause, Yanlang turned to Bloodhell Blade and said solemnly, “Although the Great Prohibition Law goes against the laws of nature, it may not be effective against Happy…”
